CBSR Baseball Catcher Management Guide

The CBSR Baseball Catcher Management Guide is designed to help catchers understand that the position is about far more than blocking balls and throwing out runners. A catcher is the field general—responsible for leadership, communication, preparation, decision-making and controlling the game.

This guide helps athletes develop the mental and leadership skills required to take ownership of the position and become a trusted presence behind the plate.

What the Athlete Gets

Athletes will learn how to:

• Take greater ownership and leadership of the game

• Communicate effectively with pitchers and teammates

• Build trust and confidence with the pitching staff

• Understand game situations and make better decisions

• Manage pitchers and help them stay composed

• Recognize offensive tendencies and game situations

• Improve pregame preparation and game awareness

• Control the pace and tempo of the game

• Become a stronger communicator on the field

• Develop the mindset and presence of a true field general

The goal is to help catchers become smarter, more confident and more influential leaders who can positively impact the game from behind the plate.
